paperback    ISBN 13: 9781844085095 | ISBN 10: 1844085090

Life in England seems transitory for Grace Cleave as the pull of her native New Zealand grows stronger. She begins to feel increasingly like a migratory bird. Grace longs to find her own place in the world, if only she can decide where that is. But first she must learn to feel comfortable in her own skin, feathers and all.
 
Written in 1963, Janet Frame considered this novel too personal to be published in her lifetime.

"A deeply rewarding and beautiful novel"
(Hilary Mantel, Guardian)
"In this deeply personal novel of exile and loneliness, Janet Frame proves the master of nostalgia, beauty and loss. Frame is, and will remain, divine"
(Alice Sebold)
